New Wheat.

The farmers ~hereabouts are well along

bottom threshing is commenced, and al
ready inquiry has been made of the millers
at what price they propose to start new
wheat. We saw a sample Of new wheat
from Mr.. Quincy Cresap's place, down the
river, which was seasoned well enough to
grind. It was choice No. l Foltze. The
millers are 10th to fix a price, but all agree
it will be somewhere beween 20 and 20
cents.

delimitation commission will delineate
as soon as the spring weather enables ii
to quit it's winter quarters at TEXANS.

Briefly, the scheme, which by the way

for cutting the bank of the Oxus neal

The Privilege of the Press.

The San Francisco News Letter" OF
| September goth has the following
Judge Wilson, one of the most honest,
but not one Of the brightest Judges, OF a
not very brilliant Bench, has just rend-
cred decision in which the broad
ground is for the first time taken that
nothing which an editor or reporter
learns in his capacity as neWsgatherer,
can be extorted from him by any legal
process whatever It is a startling
proposition Henceforth the youths who
embeIIish divorce proceedings and pick
up items around the Police Courts are
to be cIassed with clergynen, doctors
and lawyers. Everything told them IS
or may be deemed as news, and as such,
according to Judge Wilson, it is priv
legged communication over which no
Court in the land has Jurisdiction. That
which is told to the reporter to tell
everybody, and which, according to the
ethics of his profession, he is bound to
tell his employer or his agent, is privi-
legged from being told a Judge and jury.
The reporter, IN point Of fact, becomes a
much more privileged and important
parsonage than the family physician,
the clergyman or the lawyer. Those
persons are only privileged in regard to
matters pertaining to disease, religion
and law. The reporter is privileged in
respect to all "items of news" and that
embraces, in this era Of Give news
papers," the whole round OF possible
facts, and of human and even spiritual
istic imaginings. If the reporter may
object to divulge what is told him, it fol-
lows that, as the information is obtained
upon that understanding of the law, the
person who informs him may require
him to plead his privilege and refuse
to answer. In that case, the safest man
on earth to use as the carrier of danger
Gus information, is a newspaper reporter.
He is responsible to no Court, medical
society or church-and, unlike members
of the learned professions, he may make
himself the repository of any secret
under the sun, and there is no power on
earth that can call him TO account. Be
porters will enlarge the sphere OF their
employment They will become useful
adjuncts to crime, and safe confdants
for criminals to use. All sorts of fellows
will become reporters, and the "Police
Gazettes'' of the period will receive pre-
NUNS from men to whom a reporter 8
privilege will become a thing of value.
All this, we submit, must result as the
natural and obvious consequences of the
funniest decision that ever fell from ju-
dicial lips.

attemnts in recent years to establish
central government. The last arrange
uaent now exists now, and is recognized
bv the foreign powers, but it is greatly
disorganized and unsatisfactory, and
German intrigue has created petty re-
beIIion which still further confuses al
fairs, and the attitude of the three great
Powers of the United States, England
and Germany having treaty relations
with Samoa, is so unjust and unfair as
TO render new arrangement desirable.
The municipality Of Apia, which was
granted its privileges IN 1879, still gov
ems the district under the three Consuls.
They have excellent regulations for pre-
serving the peace and conducting the
affairs of the municipality, and 1t IL an
orderly and weII-governed place. The
revenue is about 81 900 per annum,
which is all judiciously expended. But
the foreign residents are not satisfied
with it, for the Consuls are rather arbi-
trary, and certainly often exceed the
powers granted them blythe Convention.
1t will be better that the town Of Apia
always remain under municipal control,
but the Board should consist OF an
elected Board of property owners and
taxpayers, and be subject to the gen
eraI government.

During the past season Miss Annis
Montague, the Hawaiian nightingale,
and Mr.. Charles Turner have been under
engagement with Max Strakosch, the
we'll known impressario Wherever
these two favorite singers have appeared
they have met with great success. From
the Rochester, n. Y. FfUnion and Ad-
vertiser" we clip the following, which
will be interesting to their many friends
in this city:
'Those who attended the entertain
ment at the Grand Opera House last
evening enjoyed a delightful lyrical
treat. Manager Lehnen is to be con-
graduated upon having arranged with
Mr. Max Strakosch, the celebrated i'm
pressario, for the appearance here of
such eminent lyric artists as Miss Annis
Montague, Nine. Rose Leighton, Mr..
Charles Turner, Mr.. G. Byron Browne
and Mr. Edward Connen, with Mr..
VIII E. Taylor as musical director.
These six appeared last evening, with
out a chorus, in the principal scenes of
Bales great opera, ''The Bohemian
Girl" and the fourth act of eli Trova-
tore" Better singing has rarely been
heard anywhere than that of last
evening. To say that the audience
was charmed with the brilliant ef-
forts, especially of Miss Montague and
Mr.. Turner, is putting it mildly. En-
thusiasm was carried to its highest point
when Miss Montague rendered most per-
fectly that old but ever-pIeasing song.
i Dreamt that / Dwell in Marble Halls, ;
and thenceforward she owned the house
in fee simple. She has the voice of
Jenny Lind and the culture OF Patti.
She is graceful, magnetic and charm
ing queen of song, Mr. Turner has a
phenomenal tenor voice, and uses it
with wonderful power and effect. His
presence, too, is strikingly attractive"

In the congressional cemetery also lies
hurled the Hon. Abel Parker Upshur,
President TyIer's secretary of state, who
was killed on the steamer Princeton by
the bursting of a cannon. This terrible
accident. by which two members Of
President Tyler's cabinet and three other
persons lost their lives, occurred the 2Sth
of February, 1914. Gen. John Tyler, Jr.,
is probably the only survivor of that &C
cident now living. In conversation the
other day he gave me very vivid de-
scription of the event. He said:
Commodore Stockton was regarded al
the most advanced man IN the navy OF
his day. He had made many improve
ments IN various ways, and among others
had made two large wrought-iron can
non. He called these the ~Peacemakers.
He invited the president and his cabinet
TO take trip down the Potomac on the
Princeton to test these guns. They had
been shot several times before dinner,
and the sport had been enjoyed greatly
by all present. At the close of the meal
Secretary Gilmer remarked 20 Commo-
dore stockton:
1t Is a good while since we heard
that gun
The commodore regarded this as an
order, coming as it did, from his superior
officer, and so rose Immediately and
passed on deck, followed by Messrs. Up
shur, Gilmer, and the rest My father
was little in the rear Secretary Gil
mer turned to me as he went above and

was delicate, and the loud report made
her nervous. So I stayed behind. II
hardly seemed that they had had time
TO reach the deck before the aw-
full report was heard. I felt sure that
something terrible had happened, and
fastening Up the terrifying scene was be
fore me. There was some unforeseen
defect in the piece which had withstood
the former discharges but had yielded at
last. Commodore Stockton was up to
that time one of the most popular men
In the country. He would, in my opin-
ion, have been president some time had
it not been for this accident. People In
some way indirectly attributed the fault
of this to him. Cor. Chicago Tribune.

" DICTATORIAL.' -

Worcester and Webster both agree
that the meanings Of the word are,
authoritative, overbearing, dogmaticaI -
The Gazette" editorially stated that
f'the Marshal must submit or CO." We
said such statement savors of being
"dictatorial,' and we are still of that
opinion. But, maybe the Gazette"
writer did no mean that which was pub
lished; if so, we apologize for the error
